Medical attention

For his part, the medical doctor in charge of the NIB Clinic, Dr Humphrey Narh, said the donation came at the right time to help save Patience.

He noted that if the surgery was not done in time, the tumor would progress to a stage where surgery would not help.

“The more the surgery is delayed, the closer she gets to a dead end,” he added.

Appreciation

The mother of the beneficiary, Madam Rose Biney, said they had given up all hope with regard to getting funding for their daughter’s surgery until they met the Global Outreach Consortium, a non-governmental organisation (NGO).

She mentioned that the NGO came to their aid by introducing them to the NIB, which in turn provided all the funds for the surgery.

Madam Biney expressed appreciation to NIB and the Global Outreach Consortium for the support.
